XIII. LAMB AND MUTTON. Farmer, Fannie Merritt. 1918. The Boston Cooking-School Cook Book. |
 | | Lamb and mutton are divided into two parts by cutting through entire length of backbone; then subdivided into fore and hind quarter, eight ribs being left on hind quarter,while in beef but three ribs are left on hind-quarter. |
 | | Lamb and mutton chops cut from loin have a small piece of tenderloin on one side of bone, and correspond to porter-house steaks in the beef creature. |
 | | Poor mutton is often told by the relatively small proportion of fat and lean as compared to bone. |
